Alvaro Morata makes shocking remark about Chelsea manager after West Ham loss

While the West London giants haven’t yet found last term’s title-winning form in the 2017-18 season, Chelsea are still placed third in the English Premier League, only three points behind second-placed side Manchester United.

Reigning Premier League winners Chelsea have had to navigate through a hectic festive period, which has forced Italian tactician Antonio Conte to shuffle his squad a bit to keep the team fresh.

While some of the Chelsea players have made public their disapproval with the constant shuffling of the squad by the manager, summer signing Alvaro Morata says he believed Antonio Conte’s intense style brings out the best in his players.

The Spaniard says he feels he always play his best football thanks to Antonio Conte’s rigorous training routine.

The Spain international striker has been in good form since making the switch from the La Liga to the Premier League over the summer. The striker was an important figure of Real Madrid’s UEFA Champions League season last term, but he didn’t get much playing time as he would have loved.

Now that the former Real Madrid striker is firmly entrenched as Antonio Conte’s number 9, the striker has lived up to expectation. Morata, 25, has already scored 9 goals in 15 English Premier League games.
